Chapter 104: The Meeting in the Provincial City? (2/2)

After she finished speaking, Shen Lingyao mounted Zhang Manman’s bicycle and left.

Three hours later, Zhao Qingfeng returned to Shen Lingyao’s home. As soon as he entered, he heard Old Shen loudly talking on the phone.

“I also want to make money, but now we can’t go and give gifts anymore!”

“Have you forgotten his look? His nose wasn’t a nose, his face wasn’t a face. It must have been because we didn’t catch him in a good mood when we went.”

“Let’s wait.”

“Keep observing, see if there are any other opportunities.”

“Yeah, okay, I’ll do some research on my side too, hanging up now.”

Old Shen hung up the phone and sat on the sofa with a worried and pained expression, sighing repeatedly.

He was at an age of no confusion. Without another chance to strive and become rich, would he have to endure the ridicule of his rivals and the big boss for the rest of his life?

He looked up at Zhao Qingfeng, noticing the young man seemed hesitant to speak, and asked, “Little Feng, what’s wrong?”

“Uncle Shen, is there any problem?”

“Adult matters, kids shouldn’t worry about. Go to the study, Lingyao is waiting for you to study.”

“Okay…”

Zhao Qingfeng entered the study without saying anything. The look in Shen Kuo’s eyes had already said everything; he didn’t believe in him at all, nor did he believe in his own strength.

Zhao Qingfeng understood.

Prejudices were like mountains.

Only facts could overturn them.

Since he didn’t speak, it might be better to ask Shen Lingyao first.

If he could help solve the problem, that would be best.

If not,

maybe he could offer some advice.

“Lingyao, what exactly is your dad busy with lately?”

“I don’t know, he doesn’t tell me.”

“Why don’t you ask again?”

“Forget it, if he doesn’t want to talk about it, you shouldn’t either. Let’s just focus on studying!”

Shen Lingyao didn’t want to discuss this topic anymore. She flipped her ponytail and playfully said, “Look, isn’t this hair tie pretty? Zhang Manman’s mom gave me ten of them. I like this bear one the most, it’s as dumb as you. Watch me make you dizzy, whoosh, whoosh, ヾ(●′?｀●)”

Pretty.

Truly beautiful.

Zhao Qingfeng gently placed his hand on her ponytail, tenderly stroking her hair, unwilling to let go for a long time.

“Lingyao, your hair is really beautiful and smooth.”

“What are you talking about? I knew it, you must think my hair is as smooth as a horse’s mane, I guessed right!”

“No, I was thinking, with such smooth hair, what if you go bald in the future, haha!”

“You’re killing me! Fine, I’ll let you off for today. Tomorrow morning, accompany me for a run at the sports field. I have a big surprise for you.”

“What surprise, Lingyao?”

“You’ll know when you go. I’ve been secretly working hard these days after you go home, haha!”

While the two were playfully arguing,

a particularly urgent meeting was being held at the headquarters of Erlunsi in the provincial city.

The event was caused by Zhao Qingfeng, yet at this moment, he was completely unaware.
